Webinar on LGBT Community and EOL Care on April 20

Aging and death don't discriminate. Whether someone is heterosexual, gay, lesbian, bisexual, or transgender, everyone grows older. HFA will host a live webinar on April 20, "Supporting the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender (LGBT) Community through Illness, Death and Grief."

This live webinar will feature Kimberly Acquaviva, PhD, MSW, of George Washington University, who will discuss the challenges faced by this community and how organizations can better serve older LGBT adults and their loved ones. Kenneth Doka, PhD, MDiv, will discuss the psychosocial issues faced by this community. Continuing Education credits are available for a wide range of professionals including nurses and social workers.
